MY RESPONSES by -- Ms. Herward

This book is about -- When visiting the dinosaur exhibit at the museum in New York, Ellie and Stevie's grandmother tells about her brother's discovery of dinosaur bones on their Nebraska farm. Most of the story is a flash back to when their grandmother and her brother were children. This is the time when dinosaur bones were being discovered in the western part of the United States. Museums were in competition to find the fossils and claim them for their collection.

I like this book because -- I found this book fascinating because of our famous dinosaur bone collection at the Carnegie Museum. Conrad makes her realistic and full of adventure. This book kept me in suspense and touched my heart as well.
